KNK Force Review

Review of KNK Force powered by the Slant community.

This is a great machine made for those that want to cut not only vinyl films, but also thicker and tougher materials. KNK Force can produce up to 39N of downforce. Because of that, you can add an optional rotary attachment and turn this vinyl cutter into a fully functional CNC milling machine.

Cross-platform, efficient software

The KNK Force has a built-in computer, and you can access it using a web browser on any Windows, Linux, iOs, or Android device. Even more, you can seamlessly switch from one device to another. The embedded software is called C3, and it accepts design files in the form of .svg files.

Limited workplace

The maximum media width that this machine can accept is only 15”. This is the most obvious limitation this machine has. Furthermore, 15” vinyl rolls are not as easy to get as 12” and 24” rolls.
